People also began to circulate fake or out-of-context screenshots using the Ooblets Discord. Since the subreddit had to be locked down for a time (due to the sheer number of new people), we saw another spin where the developers were “censoring” their community’s concerns (even though many who started fanning the flames weren’t even part of their community). The theme in those new topics was to circulate some misleading information that included out-of-context screenshots. It suddenly had an influx of so many random people within a short time frame. Remember, r/Ooblets is a small subreddit community that had lighthearted conversations. You’ll see topics about how the Ooblets devs were “abrasive monkeys,” and even topics talking about “Communist China’s involvement!”

This shouldn’t be a problem at first glance, until you realize how vastly skewed the narrative can be.

The r/Fuckepic subreddit’s aim is to criticize’s Epic’s business practices. The seven topics that popped up there were from users from a subreddit called r/Fuckepic (this will come up later too). The red circles were the most egregious.Some were from subreddits with video game memes, or political memes some were even using Reddit accounts that only posted once every two or three weeks (lurkers or throwaway accounts). They had never posted in the subreddit before, and they never claimed to have been part of the community. Meanwhile, the purple circles were topics from random users who popped up out of thin air.The blue circles represent those who’ve claimed to be Ooblets supporters or those who’ve had at least a post or two prior to the exclusivity announcement.
